1000xResist is a revolution in storytelling, creating its own complex and rich fiction that’s beautifully written and spectacularly visualized. By expertly weaving genuine intimate moments with a sharp political identity, it makes its statements with a confidence that leaves an everlasting impact.
Watcher, who worships her god the ALLMOTHER, must learn the language of resistance and uncover a thousand-year-old lie, in this intense and intimate narrative adventure.
If you enjoy a good story that can make you laugh one minute, hold back tears the next, then audibly mumble “WTF?” right after that, do yourself a favor, and check out1000xRESIST. I’m incredibly impressed with Sunset Visitor’s ability to tell a story with its debut title. It’s one that will stick with me for a while, and I’ve already caught myself still thinking about it, despite having finished it a few days ago. I can’t wait to see what Sunset Visitor does next. Hekki ALLMO.
1000xResist is one of those special games from a team of individuals laser focused on creating their masterpiece. It's story is meaningful, gripping, and heartfelt. This is a work of art you absolutely need to play.
At its very worst, 1000xRESIST manages to be “fine.” Its “worst” lasts about three minutes, and it is still ridiculously compelling all the while. At all other times, 1000xRESIST relentlessly operates at its best. It’s one of the best stories in the medium, one of the best games this year, and one of the best games I’ve ever played. It’s no coincidence that it was nominated for three IGF awards this year, with one of them being the grand prize—it’s an achievement, and every inch of it deserves to be celebrated. If this world is just, it will get the incredible fanfare that it spends every minute earning. It’s simply an astonishing debut from Sunset Visitor; I can’t wait to see what other stories they will grace us with in the future, what other experiences of theirs I will be this desperate to hold onto.
Set in a a thoroughly unique dystopian world, 1000xRESIST is a gripping sci-fi adventure exploring weighty themes, ensuring you're thoroughly invested in your fate and that of your flawed world.
Visually in particular, but also the trappings of the narrative adventure game that can get a tad repetitive over time without too many moments that shake up the gameplay. This all does not subtract from the astonishing writing and performances in 1000xRESIST and I urge those who are looking for boundary breaking storytelling to truly dive into this world blindly. It may even help you find the strength in these times to learn what it means to resist.
1000xRESISTgrabs players and does not let go, taking them through some impressive story moments and a few overly long conversations. The mix of post-apocalypse, clones, and memory exploration powers a narrative that’s unlike any other in the video game world. Speak with everyone and touch everything to get the most out of this universe.
1000xRESIST has many layers, its peculiarities and the variety of genres it explores makes it difficult to classify it and put it in a specific box. Some might interpret it as an adventure, a walking simulator or even a visual novel. But at the end of the day, what remains is a unique narrative experience in one of the best-written games of the generation.

1000xRESIST is a deep, evocative narrative game that blends elements of visual novels with the sci-fi exploration genre. With complex story building, atmospheric design, and strong thematic focuses on identity and survival, this title is one that I would recommend everyone experience.
1000xRESIST is one of those titles that you're going to be thinking about long after the credits roll. Considering this is an indie title, it's a really great show of storytelling and world-building. The themes it tackles are pretty heavy and might not be for everyone, but I really can't see anyone leaving disappointed from a story like this.
1000xRESIST is a one-of-a-kind title, heavily focused on weaving an intricate narrative and offering diverse points for reflection. Despite its limiting gameplay and aesthetic design, this game stands out as one of the most surprising and complex narrative experiences in recent years.

A quick peek at the Steam page reveals a long list of awards the game has received and after having played through, every accolade and word of praise that the game has received is fully warranted.
1000xResist is provocative in such a way that its characters, events, and lore keep tickling your brain and urging you to continue.
Sunset Visitor’s debut stretches the clean lines of video game metacommentary into a concentrated ludonarrative taffy. There is no gotcha moment, to 1000xRESIST’s credit. The struggle for meaning is long but not fruitless. Characters slowly learn to survive in—and maybe even love—the fractured world they’ve been given. 1000xRESIST will leave you with questions, but ultimately the resolution is yours alone. The game is infinitely better for it.
